By the look of the windscreen, the breathing rate picked up a wee bit there, going by the condensation on it :lol:

Na Dave, when you are that deep there is no fresh air coming through the vent pick ups, only water.
Hence the reason the sceens will condensate. It is a real hardcase look inside the cab when water pours out the dashboard vents :P

The engine didn't sound the same at the end than what it sounded like before doing the cross. :o Serves him right if he's done some damage. :roll:
